My car last friday died on my street when i was coming home from work. I drove probably 2 miles while the car was misfiring because spark plug wire#3 came off the distr. Well i cant get it to start now and when i take the spark plugs out, theres fuel all over them I took all 4 of them out to let the fuel dry in there. But i still seem to be having the same problem when i put everything back together. It wont crank up, itll want to crank up but then itll bog down and die. Any ideas?

Take out all spark plugs, then one by one take one of those BBQ lighters ( Yeah the lighter with the long nose for lightihng flames) and light the inside of your cylinders and back off a few feet.

OR

Leave your spark plugs out for a few hours or Mins to let the gas Evap.

Have you checked your Coil? It bogs really bad if you don't pre-gap your sparkplugs yourself or check them and make sure you didn't buy BOSCH they suck.

I have Bosch +4's and love them. Never had any problem with them. How many test did you do on Bosch plugs before you labeled them as "suck"????


Anyways....sorry that none of that helped. Did you take all 4 out and turn the engine over with the gas pedal all the way down? (the lighter thing sounds like a ok thing to try).

Lets just say that as soon as the RPM hits more than 3000 going fast it goes chug chug chug chug, then voom chug chug voom!
For a 7a or a 5s it might be great but a 4A that runs on premium....No way!. Im just against the 4 tip desizn of Bosch plugs. Its quality of the plug not quantity.
